On Saturday night, February 22, 2025, a famous rock star named Billy Joel, who is 75 years old, had a little accident while singing at the Mohegan Sun resort in Stamford, Connecticut. He was performing his fun song “It’s Still Rock and Roll to Me” when he twirled his microphone stand in the air. But then, he lost his balance and fell on his back.
Even though he was a bit shaken up, Billy didn’t give up. His band helped him stand up, and he kept singing until he finished his last song. Someone who was watching the show said, “Billy didn’t look very strong. He was walking slowly across the stage and even used his microphone stand like a cane to help him. I was really worried about him.”
The person watching also said, “Before he fell, I told my friend, ‘I think he’s going to fall,’ and then he did! Everyone in the room gasped when he hit the floor. He looked surprised, but he still finished the show with one more song. I used to love Billy Joel’s music when I was younger, so seeing this made me feel concerned.”
There’s a video from that night at 10 p.m. that shows Billy looking a bit weak while he performed. It captures the moment he threw the microphone stand and then fell. Even though it was a tough moment, Billy showed he’s a strong performer by getting back up and finishing his concert.
